Keeping Objects Local

When your database contains confidential information that most users do not need to see, you may want to prevent specific objects (like a payroll table) from being replicated by setting the object's replicability to False. A newly created object in a Design Master is local by default. If you want this object to be seen by another replica, you must set the object's Replicable property to True (see the preceding section). If you want to make a previously replicated object local, make sure to synchronize first to avoid losing any changes that could have been made to this object in another replica. When you make a replicated object local in the Design Master and then synchronize, the object will be deleted from the replica.

The next hands-on prevents a previously replicated object from being replicated by setting its Replicable property to False using the SetObject-Replicability method that was introduced in the preceding section.
